Special festive buses will have Santa on board in Lancaster and Morecambe this Christmas

The five festive buses – which feature Santa, children, presents and a Christmas tree – are based at Stagecoach’s depots in Morecambe, Kendal, Barrow, Carlisle and Workington, and operate different routes each day.

“I would say, ‘keep a look out for them’, but they’re so colourful you can’t really miss them,” said Tom Waterhouse, Managing Director of Stagecoach Cumbria and North Lancashire.

"We hope they put a smile on everyone’s face and get people in the mood for Christmas.”
